(54) | Anti-skid brake control system for automotive vehicle with feature of derivation of road surface friction representative data |
(57) An anti-skid brake control system monitors wheel deceleration during a period from
a timing at which vehicular braking operation is initiated to a timing at which anti-skid
brake control becomes active. Because the magnitude of wheel deceleration during the
period set forth above is approximately inversely proportional to a road friction,
the difference of deceleration can be a road friction indicative data. A vehicle body
deceleration gradient data for the first skid control cycle is approximated or projected
on the basis of the road friction indicative data so as to derive a projected vehicle
body speed indicative data and a target wheel speed indicative data for the first
skid control cycle. |
